Default Why aren't all screws pozidrive?

I go out of my way to get pozidrive screws - what's the big idea with people still using straight ones? Eg in sockets.

Pozidrive selfcentres, and doesn't slip out. And I find it's less likely to burr.

Yes torx would be even better, but pozidrive is a start.

It's an age-old truism. Men will quickly fall asleep after having sex.
And I know why, too.
It's because they've been up half the night begging for it.
